A Child Reaches for Your Hand and Touches Your Heart

Welcome!

I hope things are good in your neck of the woods, and life is treating you well!

I'm so glad you took time out of your day to stop by for a visit!

Today begins a new challenge over at The Crafters Cafe Challenge Blog.

This week we are asking you to incorporate

"Polka Dots & Ribbons"

The two just go so well together don't they?

Our challenge this week is sponsored by

Be sure to check out the challenge blog for the prize being offered.  

I fell in love with the image that we were given to work with and knew when I saw it that I would be breaking out the scissors, fussy cutting and paper piecing.  

Here's how it all came together...

*this card is available for purchase in my Etsy store

I chose to go with polka dots on the little girls outfit as well as the background paper.  I added a doily to make the card feel soft and feminine.  The sentiment comes from a printed 12x12 vellum baby sheet, and has been backed with the same polka dotted paper.  I added just a small ribbon on the corner of the sentiment to finish off the card.  Wouldn't this just be great for a baby shower or arrival of a new little one!

I hope that you've been inspired to join us over at The Cafe this week.

For more awesome inspiration, be sure to check out the other DT creations.

Until next time...
